Chapter 82: The City
In the dark cabin, Lu Jingyuan's face turned a little red.
So that's what it's like to be kissed by a girl? Soft, tender lips crossed his face like feathers, numb, itchy, obviously without any force, but the feeling of that moment was like an inscription, imprinted on his face for a long time.
It's so comfortable......
Taking a deep breath, in the cabin full of black charcoal, he accurately smelled the fragrance of A-Yao's body that belonged to a girl. The sweetness in the fragrance seeps into the limbs, and then it has to be sweet to the bottom of the heart.
In his shadow, Ah Yao only felt that her whole face was about to burn.
Brother Jing didn't say anything when he heard all the words just now, and her mind was also peeked into by him, and more importantly, she was still ...... It seems to be insulting him!
She lost her ability to think under the nervousness, and her mind was full of the slightly rough touch on her lips just now. She actually insulted Brother Jing, the girl's family should be reserved, what will he think of her if she does this?
But she really likes Brother Jing. After the truth was revealed, knowing how many times he had misunderstood him before, and how much he had helped him, Ah Yao only felt that her heart was warm, and the seeds that had been buried in her heart for a long time were about to move, and then broke through the ground at a very fast speed. The moment she saw Brother Jing, she quickly forgot the chagrin when she learned of the misunderstanding, and her eyes were full of him.
Although she has never experienced love in her past life and this life, she is very determined at this moment, she really likes Brother Jing.
Brother Kejing is Master Hou......
In two lives, Ah Yao has never felt inferior because she was a merchant. In the first thirteen years, she was protected by her father, she was carefree in fine clothes and food, even if she was the last to enter Beijing in her previous life, and when she saw the pomp and circumstance of many noble ladies in Beijing, she was only surprised by the majesty and heritage of the official family, and never felt sorry for herself because of her poverty. Because she felt that Daddy had given her enough wealth.
But until this moment, what she had always believed in was shaken. She had witnessed the pomp and circumstance of the nobles in Beijing, although the Hu family was rich, but there were some things that could not be compared to the official family in any case. And Brother Jing's pomp ...... Thinking of the last day before his death in his previous life, on the way to the pawnshop, the Xuanyi boy in the snow who led a bunch of rich and noble children, and swaggered through the city in fresh clothes, anyone could see his pride in the capital.
Brother Jing, who was born so noble, is it beyond her reach as a merchant daughter?
On one side is a strong feeling, on the other side is a strong sense of self-shame, and the two villains in red and white in their hearts began to sing a big play. The white-faced villain sneered: "I don't pee to take care of myself, but I am the daughter of a low-born merchant, and I also intend to get involved with the little marquis, and I want to eat swan meat โกโก leprosy!" โใ The red-faced villain was not convinced, "What's wrong with the background, we don't lack noses and eyes, and the person is not bad-looking, I like him to violate the king's law." โ
Two diametrically opposed feelings are tug-of-war in the bottom of the heart, and the white-faced villain counts A-Yao's shortcomings little by little: her background is not good enough, her brain is not smart enough, and she is not beautiful enough...... In short, she is useless.
Is she really that bad?
With her head lower and lower, looking at Brother Jing approaching in front of her, A-Yao shrank into the corner and said, "I'm sorry, I'm ......"
Excuse me?
Lu Jingyuan's face changed suddenly, this girl's heart was beating so fast just now, fluttering and fluttering, louder than when she came to the guest house to deliver food and the two of them were alone on the eve of the conscription banquet, and he could hear it clearly with his ears. If he wasn't sure that night, he knows it now.
This girl must like him!
But why didn't she admit it? Is it because she is still reading Song Qinwen? The memory of his previous life was haunted, and Lu Jingyuan subconsciously thought about it this way.
"What, you feel like this, sorry for your cousin?"
As soon as he asked, he regretted it, Qingshuang's words were still in his ears before he got on the boat, this girl must have been reborn. was so miserable by Song Qinwen in her previous life, and it was even mixed with the enmity of her parents, no matter how stupid she was, she shouldn't have any charming thoughts.
"Cousin?" Ah Yao was stunned for a moment before reacting, "Are you talking about Song Qinwen?" โ
reacted so slowly, it seems that she no longer regards Song Qinwen as her own in her heart.
"Didn't you just save him on the way to the dock just now, and you sent someone to send him back properly?"
That's because ...... "I had a dream last night and mistook him for you." When the words came to his mouth, a sense of inferiority came up, Ah Yao swallowed it raw, but changed to another way, "Nominally, he is still a relative of the Hu family, if I don't see it, it's okay, if I see it, I can't save it, if it is known by outsiders, it is inevitable that the Hu family will feel cold." โ
It turned out to be to preserve the reputation of the Hu family. Although Yu's family affection is relatively thin, some people still understand it. What relatives say behind closed doors, that's their own business. If you see outsiders bullying your family, or even celebrating because of some personal grievances, it is not a matter to see others in the eyes.
The fat doll who used to carry a rabbit lamp has grown up and understands the sophistication of human feelings.
After hearing that it wasn't for Song Qinwen, the little marquis who completely let go of the mustard in his heart thought like this, and when he grew up to be a big girl, it was time to open his mind.
With a firm determination, he took a step back, then leaned over and lowered his head, his forehead against a finger's width from Ah Yao's forehead, his eyes tightly catching hers, clearly seeing the timidity and hesitation in it.
She was scared, and he understood after a little thought.
"Since it's not for your cousin, it must be uncontrollable, I understand your intentions."
"It's not."
The index finger stretched out and blocked her disobedient little mouth, and Lu Jingyuan said graciously: "I will allow you to like me." โ
Brother Jing said yes?
Although she faintly sensed that the tone of this sentence was a little wrong, A-Yao, who was tormented in her heart, still felt a trace of joy. It was like a bright spring light suddenly shining in the dark cabin, bright and warm.
is so happy, who dares to say that she doesn't like this? The corners of her lips lifted slightly, and the hand at her side moved forward, hooking her small hand.
"Let's go."
The last time she pulled this girl's little hand was at the apprenticeship banquet, when she was nervous and resistant, her whole hand was trembling slightly, even then he still felt that the hand was incredibly soft. Now that there is less resistance, she is softly held by him, and her originally tender little hands will be even more like no bones.
I don't know if my little feet are so soft, but when he thinks of the pair of tender lotus calves he saw when he dived that morning, he only felt a hot current rush to his abdomen. Silently clenching his little hand, he forcibly straightened his face and pulled him to the charcoal pile, while consciously walking in the innermost part to isolate her from the charcoal that might rub against her clothes.
"These charcoal ......"
After the joy, A-Yao was in embarrassment, and when she heard him change the topic, she was pardoned, and hurriedly spoke: "Brother Jing moved it all by himself, didn't it?" Brother Jing, your arm is sore. โ
What did you call him to move with his own hands...... He just used light skills to demonstrate, and then ordered Lu Ping to take his secret guards to do it. And it's not moving here, it's moving the point on the top of the cabin to another ship.
What kind of nonsense did Lu Ping say just now!
Just as he was about to explain, he suddenly felt ...... when he saw the girl's concerned eyes It seems that this is not bad for her to misunderstand.
"No problem."
Leaving it, Ah Yao looked at the boxy charcoal blocks in front of her, each piece had to weigh hundreds of catties, how could she not be tired from doing such heavy work? But Brother Jing is still the same as before, obviously doing so many things behind his back, but he never said a word in front of her.
Thinking about Ah Yao like this, she was even more moved, and she secretly decided that she must make up for Brother Jing more when she returns home.
This girl, she will believe it when he says it's okay, so why don't you come over and pinch his shoulder. didn't know that the greater benefits were still to come, seeing that she didn't react for a long time, Lu Jingyuan could only shake his head helplessly. Forget it, I finally coaxed this girl to admit that she liked him, and as for the rest, take your time in the future.
"Silly girl, remember the following words clearly. Because Mrs. Hu was weak and couldn't stand the cold, the Hu family had three seasons of the year, and the local black charcoal was not enough, so Master Hu ordered someone to transport a batch from the northwest, which was the things in front of him. โ
"But this is clearly sent by Brother Jing."
"As a court official, there are some things that I am inconvenient to come forward."
Ah Yao nodded knowingly, but she always felt that something was wrong. Brother Jing seems to be too familiar with the Hu family? However, the most important thing at the moment is to put this batch of black carbon in place first. Thinking of the inducement of the fall of the Hu family in the previous life, A-Yao couldn't care about the private relationship between men and women, and ran to the deck with three or two steps of Da Yu, she hurriedly asked Qingshuang to find someone to report back, and she was watching it herself.
Since the incident of beating the nurse came out, the people around A-Yao have been cleaned up again and again, and all the people who can come out with her are the henchmen of the Hu family. Knowing that the matter was important, the man mounted his horse and ran out of the dock, and then took a shortcut to get back to the house as soon as possible.
When the person who reported the news returned home, Hu Jiuling was in the study thinking about countermeasures to deal with the Shen family.
Ah Yao guessed correctly, in the face of Shen Jinshan's blackmail with the best raw silk, on the surface he agreed happily, but in fact he also left a back hand, which was the thousand acres of mulberry fields that Song Guansheng was in charge of. What Ah Yao could think of, he could also think of, the reason why he didn't move in front was that he was afraid that Shen Jinshan would forcibly choke the black charcoal and break the net. But now that such a big incident has happened to the Shen family, and under the notoriety, even if the jar is broken, Shen Jinshan has to consider the anger of the people, and he will not dare to bear the notoriety of making the entire spring silkworm extinct no matter what.
Even God is helping him.
"Hu Gui, prepare the car, it's time to find Song Guansheng."
To do a full set of plays, he had to go to the countryside in person, "heartbroken" and "reprimand" Song Guansheng, and move him with emotion and reason, so that he would know his way back and completely cut off the supply of silkworm leaves to the Shen family.
But this time, Hu Gui didn't answer him immediately, but excitedly led a nursing home into the door.
"Master, the girl got black charcoal, a lot of black charcoal, on the boat on the other side of the dock."
What the? After repeatedly following the person to confirm, Hu Jiuling's eyes lit up completely. The mulberry silkworm leaves originally belonged to the Hu family, and with black charcoal, what would Shen Jinshan do to fight with him!
Immediately, he immediately changed his words, "Prepare the car!" Immediately, go to the pier right away! โ
